Caring for Colorado's Supports the Joint Foundation Statement on Immigration

There are 17,000 DACA enrollees in Colorado whose future is now filled with uncertainty. The Caring for Colorado Foundation values are consistent with those of the more than 200 other foundations that signed on in support of the Statement from Grantmakers Concerned with Immigrants and Refugees (GCIR). The health of these young Coloradans depends on their ability to live, learn and work here so they can continue to contribute to the country and culture they want to continue to call home. Our country was founded by and has prospered through generations of “dreamers” just like those protected by DACA today. It’s now up to Congress to act swiftly and do what’s right for today’s Dreamers.
